ABSTRACT
We propose a hybrid architecture of wired and wireless sensors for smart fabric with applications including body dynamics and shape monitoring and patient rehabilitation. Our system is capable of acquiring data from up to 200 on-body sensors with 50Hz sampling rate using conventional low-cost hardware. The sensing and data processing is done in real time and the results available on a smaptphone, tablet or pc in 3D visual form or as alerts. The user experience of the demo will include trying out smart clothing that is enabled with the shape sensing fabric and observing the body shape dynamics on-screen in real time.

Body posture identification using hidden Markov model with a wearable sensor network
BodyNets '08: Proceedings of the ICST 3rd international conference on Body area networksThis paper presents a networked proximity sensing and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based mechanism that can be applied for stochastic identification of body postures using a wearable sensor network. The idea is to collect relative proximity information ...
An Intelligent Body Posture Analysis Model Using Multi-Sensors for Long-Term Physical Rehabilitation
Sensors can be installed on various body parts to provide information for computer diagnosis to identify the current body state. However, as human posture is subject to gravity, the direction of the force on each limb differs. For example, the ...
